Do I Need a Bill of Sale to Sell a Gun in Utah?
A gun seller is not required to sign a Bill of Sale in Utah. At the same time, both parties of the firearm transaction prefer to fill out the document as it protects them against claims regarding the gun transfer which may arise in the future. If you decide to complete this document, fill it out as follows:
- Enter the full names and physical addresses of both the seller and the buyer. It is recommended to ask the buyer to record their ID number in the document.
- Describe the firearm you sell. The provided details must help to unmistakably identify the sold firearm. Indicate the make, type, caliber, serial number, accessories, and other important details. If the firearm has any defects, list them on the form;
- Write in all the important details of the deal. Specify the sales price in words and in numbers, including the terms of payment;
- State the date of sale and signatures of both parties. A Utah Gun Bill of Sale form only becomes legal once both parties sign it.
Does a Firearm Bill of Sale Have to Be Notarized in Utah?
The state of Utah does not require a notary public's certification for firearm sales but it is generally a good idea to have a notary or witness to a sale in order to confirm the transaction has taken place. This can save any potential trouble which might occur should the seller or buyer contest the transaction at a later date.
